 Hi guys! I don't really know much but i think i have a bottleneck. I have a R9 270X 2GB Ggabyte 3x windforce, AMD A4-6300, 8GB of RAM, FSP 700W power suply and Gigabyte F2A55-DS3 motherboard. Can you tell me if there is a bottleneck? How big is it? What do you recommend me to buy to escape of it?

 P.S: Sorry if my english is bad but I'm from Romania.

We can't tell you how big of a bottleneck you have, it doesn't work like that. It will be different for different games. You will bottleneck in most games though.

 

If you have an fm2+ socket motherboard get the Athlon x4 860k, if you have the fm2  socket, get the Athlon x4 760k. This will reduce the bottleneck. Some games might still bottleneck, but it won't be that bad. Both cpus should be pretty cheap.

 

If you are unsure of what socket you have, download cpu-z. It will tell you in that program.

 

And btw, your English is better than you think :)

 On the motherboard is written fm2/fm2+ so i guess it is a rev version (the motherboard is actually brown-black). I have like 100$, but i'm just asking because i'm not sure what to do with money. I am 17 years old so i can use them to prepare for the exam after the high school or buy some headphones or clothes or go out with friends or whatever or buy a new cpu and even a new motherboard if i have to. I would like to play GTA V with more than 15-20 fps like i do now or cs:go with more than 30-40 fps on low settings 1080p(same for gta) but there's lot of stuff to do. So i am just looking for some tips.

 And thanks for the feedback about my english. Apreciate it!
